If your child or teen is struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, or behavioral challenges, therapy can help them build the skills they need to feel more confident and capable. I was trained at Harvard Medical School’s McLean Hospital and use evidence-based treatments to support children and teens with OCD, eating disorders, ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I also provide parent coaching to help parents build effective parenting strategies. In addition to my work with children and teens, I support women navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and fertility challenges.
In therapy, your child will learn to understand what’s keeping them stuck and develop new ways of responding to challenges. Whether we’re addressing self-critical thoughts, perfectionism, anxiety, or behavioral difficulties, I help children build confidence and develop practical skills that support lasting change.
I take an individualized, collaborative approach to therapy. I recognize that no two children are alike, so I tailor treatment to fit each child’s unique strengths and challenges. I also work closely with parents to help them understand what we’re working on in therapy and how to support their child between sessions.
